Parks Puzzles by Keymaster Games in Collaboration with Fifty-Nine Parks Print Series Celebrating The US National Parks (Great Smoky Mountain)

Very cool puzzle, but it’s a difficult/challenging one. The ocean waves are one of the difficult aspects because they all are so similar. The green parts are another example. However, there are easier areas that balance out these more difficult areas. It’s also pretty unusual and different because it’s obviously not what you can call scenic.

We are outdoorsy and my kids love playing this game.

Love this puzzle

As expected.

It's nice to find a puzzle that has sturdy pieces and is a little bit of a challenge to place together. The picture is a pretty art piece as well.

This was a fun puzzle for us to do. First off, we love our national parks, so this was the perfect theme for this puzzle. Its 1000 pieces, so its not a quick one (unless you are a puzzle master, which we are not). But that's a good thing. We set up the card table and it took us over a week, taking little bits of time to sit down and complete the puzzle.Its well made, box and printing and the pieces themselves are all durable. Fit together just fine, no bad edges or rough cut. They rate it 3 of 5 for difficulty level, but we found it to be somewhat challenging. There's definitely some wide green spaces, and these parts can be challenging (which is a good thing for a puzzle). And this would make a great gift for anyone who loves doing puzzles, anyone who loves our national parks, or both!

I love the mountains, so when this puzzle became available I had to give it a go. It's 1000 pieces so good and challenging, and part of a national parks series so I am going to have to check out the others. The puzzle even came with a cute little bear token!The image is a duplication of a painting, with plenty of specific details to help keep you on track and able to work with multiple puzzlers if you want to divide up the sections. Even though I did the puzzle by myself, I still divided the pieces according to each color area to make it easier to focus on one section at a time. The board is also a nice quality. Very sturdy and not thin like some of the cheaper puzzles can be.A great puzzle for those who like a bit of a challenge. Now I'm ready to pack my gear and head for the mountains!

I am a puzzle enthusiast and my children have gained a love for puzzles as well. This is one of our favorite family activities and it is getting harder to find puzzles challenging enough to keep everyone engaged. Recently we have been doing more 2000-5000 piece ones. Although this is 1000 pieces, we all enjoyed it and found it harder than the average 1000-piece puzzle. The imagery is engaging and adds complexity because it is less detailed than a photograph. The puzzle is well made with better quality materials and varying shaped pieces that fit together tightly. No broken pieces and surprisingly little puzzle dust. Plus, the wooden bear figure was an especially fun addition. You can find the figure in the puzzle artwork itself. A clever idea that makes us want more puzzles in this series to collect the tokens representative of each US Park highlighted.
